Counseling After You Beat Addiction

If you choose medication-assisted recovery to treat substance misuse, counseling may be part of your treatment program. Even after you are no longer actively in treatment, however, you may choose to maintain therapy sessions. Counseling is an effort that involves both the patient and counselor. The patient shares their experiences, goals, and concerns, and the counselor supports the patient in finding solutions to problems. Counseling can be a long- or short-term commitment and helps people develop coping and communication skills, better mental health, and positive behavior changes. Even once you have gone through medication-assisted recovery, there are a few reasons you may want to stay in counseling: Counseling can help your recovery even after you complete medication-assisted treatment (MAT). It ensures you have a place to go whenever any personal events come up that could impact your health and ongoing progress. It’s a healthy resource you can turn to and offers someone you can talk to in confidence to help you keep making healthy life decisions. Counseling is an effective practice to help individuals stay sober. At BAART, we offer counseling alongside evidence-based medical treatment for opioid use disorder.
